CREATIVE WRITING READING
Our school has a wonderful, exciting class, called creative writing. The teacher who teaches it is a wonderful young lady, named Sarah Haskett, she has been teaching it for 9 years now. Haskett’s class has been
working on this for two months now and are exciting to share their artwork to everybody. They practiced and
practiced, now they are ready to share. Sarah Haskett says, “I’m excited for everyone to hear the student
pieces, and to feel like they did something important they should be very proud of their artwork.” The students had to choose concepts that their pieces had to explore, such as betrayal, loss, optimism, faith and
more. “I suggest this class, because you find a way to express yourself, see others perspective and all together this class is great,” Haskett says.
We asked them questions and here there response. Dawn Barns piece them was rear, Teofila Berentipos was about how society has a bi effect on young woman. Gabrella Ganletha’s piece was about her
mother and how she was an immigrant who came to America empty- handed. Everyone I asked said it was
difficult to write it at first but they got through it. They also were scared and nervous to read it to everyone. It
took two months to finally get it to the best it could be and they were really deep. Everyone thought each person did an amazing job, and they were proud of all of them. Dawn Barns and Teofila Berentipos said Gilbert
Franso piece, astronaut king was there favorite. Gabriella Galleta said 19:24 by Elioha Provost was her favorite and Andrew Bennett said Steven Hinkston’s piece, Spartacus was his favorite. All the kids did a wonderful job ad all the family’s and school was great and really deep. It was a wonderful time, if you’re really
excited about writing this class would be a great choice. Thanks for reading! #gobuffs

MANTECA HIGH GIRLS VARSITY SOCCER
SAN-JOAQUIN DIVISION III SECTIONS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME
By Daisy Hernandez
On May 21, 2016 our varisty buff soccer girls made history by not only advancing to the section game but
defeating Rio Americano with a score of 1-1. First half, Rio was up 1-0 but the game was so close. Our
girls were devastated with that first goal but it did not bring them down! In the second half, our one and
only Leah Manuleleua headed in a ball which was passed by Leijla Pepic. From that then on, our girls
were fired up and ready to win this big game. eventually, the girls went into a 10-10 overtime but the
game was to close and ended in a tie of 1-1 advancing them to Penalty Kicks. Manteca goalie Ashlee Miller stopped Rio Americano’s sixth penalty-kick attempt to clinch the school’s first Sac-Joaquin Section
Division III girls soccer championship. Jasmine Basuil, Leah Manuleleua, Jocelyn Reyes, Madison
Burch, Lejla Pepic and Carly Morrish scored PKs for the Buffaloes. Rio connected on four of its first five
shots, and when Miller stopped a shot off the foot of Rio Americano player, the blue banner, at last, belonged to Manteca and coach Justin Coenenberg.

SUMMER ACTIVITIES
Summer 2016 Activity Ideas
As the school year comes to a close, it’s time to say
goodbye to the tedious classes and say hello to another
summer full of adventure and fun. It’s okay to put aside
your summer assignments for a bit and take some time
to relax and let loose. You’ve spent the school year
stressing over projects, staying up late to study, and
losing sleep over homework. That’s why the two
months of vacation are the perfect time to just chill.
If you’re looking for some fun in the sun, here are
some ideas for awesome summer adventures and activities!
•
Going to the movies. It’s a cool place to escape
the hot air outside and enjoy a fun film.
•
Road trip! Gather up a group of friends and just
drive!
•
Beach trip. Who doesn’t love the beach? It’s the
perfect summer activity that embodies everything
about the summer. Enjoy the ocean.
•
Tie-dye. It’s always fun to get messy once in a
while and it’s something you can wear and keep around
for a long time.
•
Hiking. The perfect way to enjoy the outdoors
and get fit at the same time.
•
Ice cream! The best treat to cool down from the
hundred-degree heat.
•
Movie night. Invite a bunch of friends over, make
popcorn, and watch throwback movies like The Breakfast Club or Finding Nemo.
•
Stargazing. Since the skies are clear, you can lay
out under the stars and observe the beautiful night sky
and all the constellations.
•
Watching the sunset! Drive somewhere out to the
country or sit on your roof and watch the sun fade into
the sky and all the pretty colors it creates.
•
Learn a new hobby. You can teach yourself how
to knit, cook, play a new sport, or paint.
•
Garage sale. Make some money off of some
clothes that you don’t wear anymore or old toys.
•
Trip to the lake/river. If you don’t feel like taking
a drive to the beach, you can enjoy the water closer to
home.
•
Bike riding. Ride around the streets with some
awesome pals, don’t forget your helmet!
•
Listen to new music/make a summer playlist.
There are probably thousands of songs and albums you
haven’t heard yet, expand your music taste!
•
Go to a baseball game. It’s the ultimate summer
sport and it’s always fun to have a day at the park.
•
Watch fireworks on the 4th of July! It’s the biggest event of the summer and it’s fun to watch the sky
light up.
•
Camping. Enjoy the outdoors for a few days and
escape the world of technology and social media.
•
Have a barbeque. Enjoy some yummy food, like
burgers and hot dogs!
•
Have a bonfire. Gather around the fire pit, tell
stories, roast marshmallows.
Enjoy your summer while you can, it goes by fast and
the school year will start before you even know it!
